Since 1994 I have been professionally engaged in a variety of mapping and geographic information management projects, spanning from tourism to environmental remediation, citizen science, biodiversity, utility surveys and more. In time I have also been increasingly working on outreach related to mapping (and free/open-source mapping).
Highlights
- The Farma Valley Community Map
- The Tatti Community Map
- The BuioMetria Partecipativa Map
Below is a list of blog posts documenting my map-related activities. Need a map? Write to info@pibinko.org.
